Twenty-two years since they were first intro

to a greater extent, than any other remedies
known to the public.
Those remedies will effectually Mire Liver Coup

There is no medicine extant equal to these
remedies in such cases. A tone and vigor is im
parted to the whole system, the appetite is
strengthened, food is enjoyed, the stomach di
gests promptly, the blood is purified, the cotn
pies ion becomes sound and healthy, the yellow
tinge is eradicated from the eyes, a bloom is
given to the cheeks, and the weak and nervous
invalid becomes a strong and healthy being.

NOTICE.
It Is a well established fact that fully ono-ball
of the female portion ot, our population
aro Heiden' in the en- T Joyment of good
health; or, to use 1.1 their own exPles•
Mon, "never feel well." They are lan
guid, devoid of all energy , extremely nervous;
and have no appetite.
To this class of persons the BITTERS, or the
TONIC, le especially recommended.
Weak and delicate children are made strong
by the use or ither of these remedies. They
will cure every case of MARASISIrS, without
fall. Thousands of certificates have accumula
ted in the hands of the proprietor, but space
wilt allow of but few. These, it will be observed,
are men of note and of such standing that they
must be believed.

[Extract from the speech of Gen. Ilampton, But morn than this!
before the Democratic Convention in Col-
Wade Hampton Denouueen his Stan.
derors.
umbia, Aug. 7, 1808.]
"I am glad thatthe reference made by the •
gentleman from Marion affords me an op-
Immunity to say ufew words concerning my
self. If these; misrepresentations of language
which I have uttered, if the perversion of
facts which I have stated reflected only upon
me,l. should not only bear the infliction with -
patience, hut treat it with the contempt it
deserves. When, however, I am tolcli that
these talsehoods are a source of injury to our
cause, and that they weaken the-Democratic
party—the party upon which our life and
salvation depend—l am glad to have an op
portunity to denounce them and their au
thors as infamous. I have said more to the
people of New York than to any Southern
audience. I told them that we believe we
were right, but that we were willing, to ac
cord to others what we claim for onrselves,
viz, perfect sincerity in our convictions and
unquestioned devotion to principle. I told
the Northern people that we spoke with no
double tongue, that rte were earnest and
truthful in our desire to support the Union
and the Constitution, and in that spirit we
accept the hand so freely extended to us by
the great Democracy of the North. I told
them we wanted the Constitution restored.
Does thislook like revolution? I declared
that we wanted peace ; but instead of re
ceiving peace, we have not only been charged
with being revolutionary, but there seems to
have been a persistent effort to drag us into
some outrage which would afford them po
litical capital at our expense. I have recent
ly seen what purports to be n quotation from
. a speech made in Charleston, not to an ordi
nary meeting, but in acknowledgment of a
compliment—a serenade given to me by my
old soldiers. I am told that in the New
York Herald it is published that I said "the
flag had heed perverted, and. I should one
day unfold it and call around me. the men
who used to follow that banner in the field."
I need not tell you that this statement is in
every respect false. On the contrary, when
I spoke of the flag of the Confederacy 1 re
marked that it was furled forever, to be
buried in the grave of our lost cause. I did
'make an allusion to another flag, which had
been followed by many of the men standing
around me. It was a flag that bad been
worked by the descendants of Revolutionary
patriots, and presented to us by the noble
women of South Carolina, through the hands
of our then chief magistrate—a flag which
had floated amid the smoke of many a des
perate battle-field ; which had been borne by
my own hero son, and which enshrouded
flint when lie was carried to the tomb. I
told them that flag was resting with me ; fur
I knew that they would be glad to hear tid
ings of a banner that had so long been famil
iar to their eyes, and whose ample folds did
not contain space enough on which to write
the names of all the engagements in which it
had floated in the front of battle. Because
I told any old comrades that that flag of a
single regiment bad not been burned in- the
wreck of Columbia these Radicals of the
North basely perverted both language and
sense for the purpose of producing politi
cal effect. Had they taken- the patns to do
so, they would have seen that I said that
even that flag was furled forever, to be buried
in the grave of our lost cause. I shMild not
have noticed these gross misrepresentations,
had they not been brought to my notice in a
direct manner by my friend froM Marion ;
but since he has afforded me an opportunity
of doing so, I use it not only to denounce
these statements as false, brit to reiterate
here, as I do in every place, that I am fight
ing as earnestly in the interest of peace as I
did in war. In saying this, I recognize all
the interests involved in this contest, and,
also recognize, to the fullest extent, the kind
ne.ss extended to us at the North by those
who bad met us on a hundred battle-fields,
and who, standing around a common altar
which they wished once more to raise, ex
tended in faith and kindness the right hand
of friendship. I ask you what more can I
do? Everywhere I have urged our people
to come forward in this contest, and be as
true soldiers. in the cause of peace as they
were in the cause of war. This is all I have
done, and it is what I shall continue to do,
notwithstanding the misrepresentations that
may he given to the world. Whatever may
be the eltarlieter of the falsehoods circulated,
I intend to pursue an even course, and will
not 14provoked to say one word that it fte
tin-1111(ms or offensive. I know the object,
which the Radicals have in View, and I urge
the people not to give way to prejudice or
passion. Let them in paticute endure the
misfortunes they cannot control, avoid all
conflict with the negroes, give no political
capital to our enemies, trust to the Demo
cratic party, tight this great struggle with
peaceful agencies alone, and there is every
reason to believe that we shall witness the
restoration of the Government, and- the su
premo; of the Constitution of the United
Ststeg."

By this process he made sure of receiving

dollar in gold, and what he had actually
bought with one such dollar—thus getting

Nor is this all !
He now demands that for every green-
back dollar' that he lent the Government,
and which, when he lent it, was worth only
forty or fifty cents on the dollar in gold, he
shall receive a gold dollar, and Granteand
the Jacobin, party are pledged to sustain him
in this demand.
Though the bonds provide for the payment
of the principal in lawful money, which,
greenbacks arc &clared to be by Jacobin
law, the Jacobin Congressional majority has
attempted, ut the instigation and in the in
terest of the bondholders, to perpetrate- a
monstrous fraud -upon the people, and -rob
them of six hundred millions of dollars more
than the present amount of the public debt,
by taking up the outstanding legal- tender
bonds and issuing in lieu of, them bonds ex•
pressly payable in gold, which it would take
six hundred millions of dollars more legal
;enders to pay than to pay the bonds as they
now stand.'
Now strike the bahmee between money
and lite !
What is paid for the poor man's life which
he was obliged, by the Federal conscription,
to sacrifice in the war
Look nround among the widows and or
phans of those whose lives were thus im
molated upon the altar of abolition fanati
cism, and, in their destitute and suffering
condition, behold the evidences of the liber
ality and justice of the Government towards
those from whom it tore their bread provi
ders.
How does it treat the bondholder?
The bondholder is exempted from tua
tam on his bonds, and the soldier who came
'out of the war alive., and the widow and
children of there who were slain, in com
mon with all others of the laboring classes
to which they belong, are taxed to pay these
bonds, and almost the entire burden of taxa
tion for the payment of the bonds falls upon
them.
Then it came to this t
The workingmen gave their live !
The workingmen pay the taxes I
The workingmen pay the bonds !
The bondholders gave nothing 1
The bondholders pay no taxes !
•
The bondholders pay nothing?
The soldier who received his pay and
bounty, had to take them in greenbacks lent
by the bondholder upon the bonds which he
now claims shall be paid in gold. The Ja
cobins would now tax this same soldier, and
make him pay back what he thus received
for his services.
Still more!
They would make him pay it in gold, to
be handed over to the bondholder for the
greenbacks he lent the Government to pay
this soldier for risking his health, his limbs,
his life. .
Thus the pittance which the Goren
meat paid the soldier, is taken back from
him in taxes—aye, double the amount—to
pay to the bondholder twice the sum be ever
lent.
Were the bondhOlder now compelled to
forfeit every dollar of his bonds, would it
bear any om arisen to the valde of the lives
vrhich were taken without rendering en
eguivalent
liLOr wonld it e any approach to the
quatit and inj, at ce of paying the bonds
in gold, and exempti g the bondholder from
taxation
And this is the Jacobin policy!
Reconstructed Arkansas.
SCENE-A. Union soldier, who has moved
to Arkansas and bought a farm there, wants
to register under that provision of the recon
structed Constitution which says : "The
General Assembly, at its first session, shall
provide suitable laws for the registration of
qualified electors."—[Art. V, sec. 25.]

R—"l, John Smith, do solemnly swear
that I will support and maintain the Consti

Who Pay the Taxes!
The Radicals are saying constantly that
the poor man pays no taxes, that the ..rich
man pays theta all ; and that it matters - sot
how high they are the poor man feels none
of the burdens. Let us see about this—se it
is a very specious sort of reasoning and may
pmbahly deceive some. Tea.coffee and sugar.
have become prime necessaries to our people,
and no family can think of doing without
them. On these three articles, in 1567, there
were paid fort,-eight millions of dollars in
gold, taxes. Sugar and molasses alone paid
thirty-two millions taxes, on a sworn value
of forty-six millions, or a tax of about seven-
ty-five per cent. A tax of twenty-five cents
a pound in gold is levied on tea, which is
equal to about thirty-five cents in currency
at the present price of gold. Whenever a
poor man buys a dollar's worth of sugar and
molasses, he pays a tax of about twenty-five
cents to the government. 'While this is done
the bond of the bond-holder is altogether ex
empt from taxation. Tea, coffee, sugar, and
molasses.are chiefly consumed by the masses,
who, it will be seen, pay more tax in propor
tion to their means, than the bond-holder.
These taxes were imposed to support the
Freedmen's Bureau, the army to make a ne
gro the political equal of the white man, and
a thousand other extravagant expenditures.

Farmers, Read this Article.
We need not call to the mind of the farm
ers and others who have desired to buy land
or-build for a few years past, how herd a
matter it was to borrow money On real estate
security. The best farm in the country of
fered no greater inducement than a poor
huckleberry patch, for the money was not to
be had on real estate. What was the reason
of this? We will tell our farmer friends. The
Government, with, 5-20's, 1040's and other
bonds, over-hid the farmer, and the lender
put his money where - ho could get the largest
interest. A capitalist will not lend his mo
ney to an individual for six per cent.on bond
or mortgage, and pay a tax on his security,
bealesan t , ' , l
eight or nine, v, allow. paying a tax of any
kind on it. The Government, then, as a bor.
rower, monopolizes ,the market, and the far
prier or laboring map, who wishes to buy land
fir improve it, cannot borrow money unless
he will pay as much interest as the Govern
ment, which few can afford. What has been
the consequence of this? Real estate has
often suffered for want of improvement, and
many a man who wished to buy a home for
his family. could not dci - it, because he could
not borrow money . to help pay for it. At the
last session of Legislature an act was passed
to remedy this stateof things, which exempts
bonds and mortgages from taxation. While
this benefits the lender, and to some extent
enables the farmer to borrow money, the lat
ter really is injured, for the tax thdt was for
merly raised from bonds and mortziges is
now placed on real estate. The• burden is
not taken off, but only shifted from one de
scription of property to •another. All this
comes of unequal taxation, the ,ercature of
the Radical party, a contrivance as old as
the government to make the rich richer, and
the poor poorer.
The 'Democratic party is opposed to this
system, and adveiefitcs a more liberal and
just policy toward the farmer. Here is the
cardinal doctrine of our party on this Impor
tant subject: •
"Equal taxation of every species of pro
perty according to its real value, Including
Government bonds and other public seman
tics."
Our party is pledged to equalize taxation,
which will prevent the Government from
monopolizing the market as a money lor•
rower, and place it on a level with individu
als.
&dean% Sleep with the Whole Party: ,
. We heard the following good joke related
yesterday of a member of the Pendletorrelub,
of Cincinnati, at the New York Convention.
It appears that he could not gc with the club
when it started, but followed it a day or two
afterward. Reaching the city in the night.
and preferring to go to a hotel rather than
hunt up the headquarters of the club at that
late hour, he made his way to an up town
hotel, ' Of course it was crowded. But what
seemed a wonder, there was one room unoc
cupied. To that the tired Cincinnatian was
assigned, and was soon marshaled there
by a bell boy. He was not a little dismayed
to end the room to be about eight by ten feet,
with a small window fronting on an unfath
omable alley, its depth made vocal by a
battalion of torn cats, and redolent with un
numbered smells. He at once objected to
such quarters, and dispatched the belt buy
after the clerk, who soon made his appear
ance, •
"See here," said the Cincinnatian,
you expect ate to stay in this place all
night?':
The clerk assured him, that, in conse
quence of the crowded condition of the ho
tel, no better accommodation could be af
forded him, although it would be a great
pleasure on his part to give him the best
room in the house. "And," added the clerk,
by way of a clinching argument, "Gen. Grant
slept in this room once when he visited the
city."
The gentleman from Porkopolis said he
didn't care a continental as to that, but it
Gen. Grant could stand it he supposed he
could. The clerk returned to the office,
complimenting himself upon his strategy
The guest retired to his bed, and in five min
utes he was attacked by countless hosts of
bed bugs. Finding it useless •to contend
against such overwhelming numbers, he
hastily attired himself and sought the office.
"Why," said the astonished clerk, "I thought
you were satisfied to stay in your room all
night" "Now, look here," said the Cincin
natian, "r ve got pluck enough to sleep where
Gen. Grant has slept, but I'll be eternally
cussed if I can make up my mind to sleep

A Lady's Tribute to Coy. Seymour.
The Revolution, Mrs. Cady Stanton's pa
per, publishes this extract from a letter of a
lady in regard to the Presidential nomina
tion :
"In private conversation Goy. Seymour is
instructive and interesting, and is, if possi
ble,more remarkable for his elegance of man
ner and graceful courtesy in the drawing
room than for his matchless eloquence and
magnetic power as a public speaker. Al
though most captivating in private life, he is
in no sense a man of forms or fashion In
his presence the plainest persons - are placed
at their ease—and feel at once that they are
with a kind and good man, Democratic in
nil his instincts, principles and purposes.
Simple and unostentatious, strictly temper
ate,s he uses neither strong nor spiritous
liquors, nor tobacco ; of the most refined
tastes and elevated morals; it is said of him,
by those who have known htm from his
early youth, that he was never under the in
fluence of strong drink—never known to tell
an untruth or 'utter a ,profane oath—to in
dulge in a vulgar story, a coarse anecdote
or an obscene jeet4nor did he eVer violate
the proprieties of the Sabbath, or, sit at the
gambler's table, or cross the thresbhold of
more fashionable vice. Purity of life is with
him a marked characteristic. Educated in
the Episcopal church, he has ever remained
faithful to his communion, adorning its doc
trines by a blameless life and multiplied
deeds of charity. Yet free from sectarian
ism, he has contributed liberally to the erec
tion of every other church and place of pub
lic wortainp in the city of Utica and its vicin
ity. An active Trustee of Hamilton College
(a Presbyterian institution) he has been made
by it an LLD., as well na by a Methodist
Lniversity in 'mother State. The children
of the Orphan Asylum have been guests at
his house (which is a house of prayer,)and it
was noticeable that, when the news of his
nomination for President reached Utica,
these children spontaneously turned out in
procession, and manifested their joy in many
pleasant ways peculiar to the innocenc, 01
childhood."
STEALING AT A DRAT) CONtiIitEVIIAN't
